Installing RIB on the back of a 40 Express
#1
I am wondering if anyone with a 40 Express or similar (boats with 48" platform with open lazeretee) can comment on if when the RIB is loaded; does it interfere with the garage door opening and closing. 

Trying to decide where and how to mount the davits...

Thanks!

Did you ever install a system?

I was thinking a RIB, around 500lbs, but I have similar concerns.   I'm also worried about performance as my 4000 runs vest when the tabs are all the way down.  She doesn't like the bow up at all.

I used the DinghyRampXL which allows you to dangle the set-up far enough aft where you can easily walk by and open the laz. Only thing I can’t access is the swim ladder.

Ah thanks.     I saw systems like that and they look pretty good and easy to use, but we board from the platform, no finger pier where we are docked.
